Holiday Photographic Gift Guide 2022

11/11/2022

3 Comments

 
How fast did this season drop itself into our laps?

Yep.  It's time to figure out what Santa is going to leave for all the people on your list, some of whom you have no idea what to buy for them, because they "don't want anything," or "have everything they need." (How many times have I heard that!)

I have a few ideas that may be helpful in your quest to find the perfect gift.

AND, if you are a past client, you can take advantage of a 20% off past image gallery photo sale, held from now through December 5th, to make it happen.  That same discount is applied to gift orders of NEW clients who are visiting for holiday card photos!

​Here are three tried and true gifts that never disappoint!


A Beautiful Float Framed Print

You can make an image a one-of-a-kind piece of wall art by adding a handcrafted Float Frame.  This can be done with a variety of print surfaces, including Photographic & Fine Art Prints, Metal Prints, and Gallery Wraps.

What is a Float Frame? 

A Float Frame offers you some great choices:


  • Three unique molding styles, each with various color options (the one below is charcoal)
  • ⅛" space between the frame and the print creates a floating illusion
  • Delivered ready to display with a wire hanger
  • Sizes:  From 5x7 to 30x40
  • ​7-10 days to process

I don't know anyone who wouldn't be happy finding this under the tree, especially when featuring favorite pets, people, or a past year memory. 

Everyone Loves a Calendar

Since making my own studio calendars for the past several years, I have now begun offering a year's worth of photo joy to clients.  Why not revel in your own memories as each month passes? 

There are two options:


​Option One:  A 5x7 Photo Print Calendar
Picture
You choose the images you would like included, and the months you would like to see them featured in, and I do the rest.  Uniquely designed with your style in mind, there are many page options to select.

Showcase all the fun times of the past year in your upcoming year!

Design work takes 2 days, processing in 7 - 10 days.


Option Two: A 5x10 Magnetic Calendar
Picture
There was always a magnetic calendar on the fridge when I was growing up.  Whether for your fridge, file cabinet, desk, or work bench, the days of each month are always in front of you.

You can dedicate this calendar to one very special remembrance, or select your favorite photo (or three) from the past year.  This makes a great gift for a loved one--grandparents especially love this calendar with a photo of their grandkids, whether skin or fur, or a photo of your whole family.

You can also order more than one at a quantity discount.  They take 7-10 days to process.

The Gift of Photos

If you'd rather let the choices up to the person you are buying for, why not choose a gift certificate, which they can use toward product credit, or to cover the cost of a photographic session.  

I Got the Shot Gift Certificates are good for 6 months from the date of purchase, offer a unique gift idea, and often are just the surprise welcomed by families and friends who may have been thinking about having photos done, but haven't yet done the research and leg work to make it happen.  This might be just the impetus they need!

Don't panic.  There's still time.  

You will also find more gift ideas as you stroll through the blog circle today, and there are definitely more products to select from available in the studio!


Click Into the Circle

I am part of a weekly blogging group of professional pet photographers located all over the planet.   To see what others have blogged about in this week's topic, up next is Seattle Dog Photographer, Holly Cook, as she  shares her Holiday Gift Guide for 2022. Number 1 on her list? A very special offer for the "hard to buy" dog lover in your life.

Then find the link at the end of each blog to click on to the next photographer, until you find yourself back here.  Enjoy!  Have a great weekend!

Everyone needs a dog photo calendar! And even better if it's of their own pets! And of course.. there is nothing like the gift of a pet photo session :) And yes.... the holidays are approaching sooo quickly!!!

Ohhh, I love the dog photo calendar! So pretty, I might need to know how you create those! I think the gift of photographs is the one of the most meaningful, and personal, gifts you can give someone.
